This time the selection was made entirely by Nintendo

With that in mind, what do you think so far? They'll be doing it this way after #5 as well.

Most likely candidates are Dark Souls, Resident Evil, Doom and Ninja Gaiden

You know who i really want?
A standard Hunter from MH.
Rath armor as the default, other sets as alt.
Each special would be a move from a different weapon, i guess.

I don't know why this isn't a thing yet, in the pools japanese players want it a lot, MH is both on nintendo and non-nintendo hardware, by now it's pretty popular in the west too, so what gives?

That's boring as fuck go fuck yourself.

pretty cool.
I like Terry. Terry shows they care.

>That's boring as fuck
So is Joker, Hero, Terry and the entire FE cast.
And yet here we are.

Rathalos was probably the best representation of the series. The monsters are the stars of the show

>Hero
>Human RNG
>boring
No.

>tohou project
>hatsune miku
>undertale
>better
Bait

Good thing Nintendo didn’t do that

>Based
Banjo
>Fine
Hero and Terry
>Faggot Shit
Joker

>>Faggot Shit
>Joker
Why? He was the best candidate for a Megaten rep, came with a cool stage and great music, was a nice surprise and is fun to play as

sakurai sucks at making characters unique or fun
he could add jesus christ and he would still share half his moves with the rest of the cast

> Popular bad
> Niche characters good

They're saving the worst for last if TGA reveal is the first second pass fighter

Hero and Joker are kinda boring, but Banjo make up for it completely with how great, fun and full of personnality he is.
Didn't know SnN, but Terry's design is really cool.

#5 will be Crash as the Activision Blizzard rep.

I want a Resident Evil character though, one of the most popular franchises in gaming

So you're telling me that these (removing Gacha shit), wouldn't have been better than what we got?
> Dragon Quest
> Touhou Project
> Monster Hunter
> Project Diva
> Undertale
> Final Fantasy
> Dead or Alive
> Yo-Kai-Watch
> Megami Tensei
> Kingdom Hearts
> Resident Evil
> Danganronpa
> Blazblue
> NieR: Automata
> Street Fighter
> Mega Man
> Pac-Man

>Dragon Quest
>Final Fantasy
>Megami Tensei
>Street Fighter
>Mega Man
>Pac-Man
huh?

I don't see Danganronpa happening at all but if Nintendo really does it they'll be madmen.

Spike Chunsoft definitely has the relations seeing as they've worked on all the Mystery Dungeon games, but I don't know if Nintendo wants to represent the game about kids killing each other in Smash.

Now you're listing more third parties than you listed before. But regardless, I think Tohou, Project Diva, Undertale, Dead or Alive, Yo-Kai-Watch, Kingdom Hearts, Danganronpa, Blazblue and Nier are all lame for Smash

These are the most googled franchises in Japan, ignoring Fate & Kancolle. Mega Man & Pac-Man are the mascots & would have been included no matter what

What about the western rep?

The most important thing to note is that it's a visual novel with none of the characters ever doing anything combat related, outside of the aforementioned killing, which doesn't translate to something that could be represented in a moveset. Basically Danganronpa just isn't something that's translatable to Smash in any feasible way. I get that there are weird picks, but it's a different wheelhouse entirely.

Unless you can think of a way to translate Sylvanas into a fighter, it wouldn't happen. Because WarCraft is the most googled western game in the world & would have been chosen if popularity was actually the only requirement

I'd love anything Dark Souls but I'm not sure how likely it'd be, there's plenty to pull from but Smash is already swarming with fantasy RPGs and after Hero it seems hard to justify adding another in the same DLC pack

I don't think it's unlikely. It's still an extremely hot franchise that'd get people very excited and they could add some unique stamina mechanic or something off the sort to make the character standout.

No popular characters, everyone in the series is a literal who even moreso than Geno. Banjo was popular enough to warrant 20 years of fan demand, and Terry/Mai get shilled into every game imaginable

I can see Monokuma's moveset being representations of the different murders/executions of the franchise plus some generic bear moves.

>Close range attacks that could be a multitude of murder weapons like a golden katana, a dumbbell, a bat, an iron skewer with a tipper sweetspot, a hammer, etc.
>Projectiles that could be a baseball, a robot-bee that does lingering damage, a spear, a fire grenade that explodes with a poison cloud (like Plant), etc.

>No popular characters
Solaire has been referenced in countless other games (among other things from the Souls series) and also has his own amiibo

Nobody cares about him, you will never hear anyone unironically say "Solaire is one of my favorite characters"

based on what? He's considered one of the best characters in the entire Souls series and out of all the questlines his is the one that stays with people the most

>Joker
Didn't give a fuck.
>Hero
Pretty neat.
>Banjo
Lost my shit.
>Terry
Hope this means more fighting game characters can be DLC.

5th character is probably going to be someone no one expects. All in all, not bad. Banjo makes it worth buying.

i think having all 3rd parties was cool
